We talk about the importance of family but how much do we really see and hear the people we care about most?When someone tries to reach out and share a problem with us do we jump in to fix without being asked? Does the discomfort of a potential confrontation or badly timed conversation cause us to run for the hills? What would happen if we stopped what we were doing, sat with our discomfort or frustration and gave the person our full attention?

As human beings we’re naturally drawn to what makes us feel good and when we start practicing Yoga, it can feel damn good. But like anything the honeymoon period can wear off. How many times have you started something with great gusto only to get bored after a while? Think of all those gym memberships that people take up in January and don’t use after March.
